Twinzes ;)

            Some odd things go thru ones head when you're taking a long super warm/hot shower to try to warm up because you are cold, so very cold cold to the marrow in your bones COLD!

            I was thinking back on today with great thanks that Scotty & I got to spend the day together doing a hole lotta nothing J  ... and I was remembering our brunch at Olive Garden. I'm not sure when it happened but the 'OG Twins' as I called them have graduated from hostess to servers and I NOW know their names NOT that it would help me much if they took off their name tags & said 'ok who am I?' any how the point to this is it got me to thinking and I mentioned to Scotty "I wonder why parents of twins do that, name their children the same first letter name." I kinda laughed to myself that we both had the same name in our head when I posed the question 'what if my mom had twins what would my twin be named if I am NaPua my twin would be … '

            My thoughts are if they are identical twins or not there should be a rule they can not have the same first letter name! I know 4 sets of twins and 3 of the sets share a first letter name thing like the 'OG Twins' they are Veronica & Vanessa  btw … but since I don't have kids let alone twins I guess I really have no right in saying anything J and who knows maybe it is an unspoken rule that you only know about if you are lucky enough to have twins that yes actually they MUST have a same first letter name if they are identical or not. Unless you are a rule breaker like my friend who is a twin & they have different first letter names ;) way to go mama you rebel <3.

 

To anyone reading this that has twins that have the same first letter name…. PLEASE UNDERSTAND I MEAN NO DISRESPECT AT ALL…just an outsider looking in & confusingly observing J

p.s. this pic is of one of my FAV Friend Sets they humored me for a friends event in Port Gamble WA last year.

Gone Girl book read for book club

53% in to the book NOW I get what you all were saying YUP NOW I can't put it down! WOW DID SO NOT SEE THAT COMMING!!! Frick am I glad I didn't just stop reading it like wanted to so many times!!!

It's funny people I talk to say if you don't like it or if its not your style why are you still reading it? Then some get a giggle at my answer others look like a deer caught in head lights.  My answer ... I feel I owe it to the author who's work I'm reading all their hard long hours of writing, I owe it to the proof readers, the editors, the printers, the promoters of the author/book, they all in their way made it so I could be reading this book I owe it to all their hard work to finish the book like it or not. Plus there is only 1 book in my life I did not finish because I couldn't take reading one more page...and I don't want to add to that list!

Enie mene mineie mo catch a tiger by the toe...

A thought crossed my mind this am had me pondering for a while so I'll share.... K so for those who don't know-know me I'm not a girly girl I don't wear makeup I HATE shopping of any kind unless it's for friends I used to wear perfumed lotions but then I cut myself off & allowed myself 2 bottles of perfume a season so 1 or 2 scents for Spring & Summer. Then a different 2 for Fall & Winter. This morning what prompted this post is I was at a loss what scent to use this am & realized I have 6 0.0 yes 6 bottles to choose from! How did that happen???
Ok there's you glimpse into my mind for the day....now go out & have a blessed day <3 namaste <3

Here's a tip.....

As I'm sitting here waiting to pick up dinner it got me thinking ...... Do you tip when you call in for take out?

Doing chores I no longer get wages for....

So when I got home from a long day at work I looked at the vacuum and thought ' I know I have cleaning to do but really I just wanna go read some of my book then go to bed....boooo I was a good little girl & did my chores first :< thought it would help make me sleepy but my mind got to the what ifs then an 'ish' happened now I'm more worked up than before I got home :< tried to finish off a bottle of 2003 Late Harvest but I think it was left 3/4 drank & corked for tooo long got an instant headache so now settling for some sleepy time hot tea & hopefully a few more "sessions" / chapters in my book ... really should be sleeping :( plus I got a dog huffing/pouting at me & rooting thru his dish looking for the good stuff a cat laying on my leg meowing me the riot act for being gone so long today & for not being in bed right now .... maybe should have got a hotel room instead ;) naw it's nice to be missed I guess.

Dreams are funny sometimes...

So this am in my dream a friend showed up and we were spending time visiting, then my alarm went off in the real world my friend in my dream begged me not to go I could see such desperation in their eyes so I said I'd just be gone long enough to hit snooze then is be right back...I did this quite a few times enough so that the friend in my dream & my choices made me late getting up for work today :( . Then as I was getting ready for work I got to thinking I've seen that look on that friends face in the real world altho they've never begged me to not go in fact sometimes the friendship feels kinda one sided but I think that's just because their supply of friends is so full, because when we do get just us time it's a great connection! Sometimes tho it does feel like I'm a bit of a security blanket where in the dream they wanted me there but in the real world it feels like that they try to limit their time with the security blanket out of some other fear. Ah well off to work :)

My 40th birthday thoughts......

While driving home from an amazingly full & fun day I got to thinking #1 how blessed with friends I am…#2 how I am so EXTREMLY happy this will be the LAST EVER birthday night I go to bed alone! #3 how even though it is my birthday I really feel that all the celebration should honestly go to my mom….SHE is the one who gave me LIFE & has been and continues to be the best mother & best friend a girl could ever hope to have I LOVE YOU MOM!!!
